shutterbug saturday :: man’s best friend

Snow? Already? I can hardly believe it is that time of the year again!

Since most of my life has been consumed with baby things this past year, I thought I would share a throwback photo from last winter. During the first snow, Max and I went out for a walk (well… Max was running more like a freight train with his nose low to the ground).

I love watching him when he still acts like a puppy, EVEN when I hear him running through the house because I know he just stole a pair of daddy’s socks out of the closet! haha…

I can not tell you how much I love this dog! The phrase “man’s best friend” just doesn’t do him justice! He thinks he is a human, and I really think he might be at heart! He loves to snuggle, sit on my lap (yes… he’s 85 pounds!), and go anywhere we go. He listens better than most humans, and puts his head in my lap when he’s trying to comfort me.

He was my first baby, and we still call him “Big Brother.” He will always have a special place in my heart!
